Longevity Begins From Raising Disciples

”Bleh bleh bleh... Smelly Master, stupid Master! All you do is meditate and practice Alchemy every day. You never play with Qing Jun! When you turn into a big turtle, let’s see how you can still be the Peak Master!”

A little girl, hands on her waist, leaned close to Chen Ye, stuck out her tongue, and let out a very arrogant laugh.

You could see the little girl holding a piece of black charcoal dug out from the bottom of the Pill Furnace, proudly standing in front of Chen Ye.

Damn it!

How does his cute little disciple now look like a mischievous imp?

Once I finish my breakthrough, I must tie that Dragon Tail of yours into a butterfly knot!

Has Qing Jun been amusing herself like this lately...

Of course.

Qing Jun’s pranks couldn’t possibly disturb Chen Ye, even if she were to act high and mighty on his head, it wouldn’t matter.

Don’t think that just because Chen Ye is in seclusion, he can’t be disturbed. He’s currently a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in the Late Period, how could he be affected by these little antics? Otherwise, Foundation Establishment Cultivators would be too weak.

Chen Ye didn’t bother to pay attention to this mischievous girl, allowing her to hold the black charcoal and search for a spot to strike at him.

Meanwhile, he devoted all his focus into the depths of his Divine Sense, to meticulously experience the astonishing transformation brought by the Limit Break of the Seven Luminaries Soul Nourishing Technique.

Deep within the boundless and infinite expanse of the Divine Sense, like a tranquil cosmic void, seven star shadows hung high.

Before Chen Ye went into seclusion,

Of the seven stars, only ”Taibai” and ”Saturn” shone brightly.

Among them,

Taibai Star greatly enhanced the power of Chen Ye’s Flying Sword and Gold Series Magic.

This was largely because of the blessing of Taibai Star that his Cyan Wave Sword Control Technique, Geng Metal Qi, and his ultimate Heart Slaughter Sword could increase in power so dramatically.

The Saturn Star acted like an inexhaustible spring of Divine Soul, allowing Chen Ye’s Divine Sense recovery rate to reach an astonishing level.

This is where his confidence to tirelessly and continuously practice Alchemy comes from.

And this third star is the Star of Suppression!

A vast earthy yellow divine light spread from the Star of Suppression, intertwining with the sharpness of Taibai Star and the vitality of Saturn Star, forming a faint barrier that securely protected the center of Chen Ye’s entire Divine Sense.

Chen Ye carefully felt this brand-new power, his heart elated.

”I see... Star of Suppression, main control, main stability!”

He discovered that his Divine Soul hadn’t expanded due to the illumination of the Star of Suppression — the prior expansion of Divine Sense was merely because his Divine Soul Cultivation Technique had Limit Broken, not because of any benefits from the Star of Suppression.

However, under the Star of Suppression’s blessing, the toughness of his Divine Soul greatly increased!

Ordinary Divine Soul magic, Spiritual Shock, or those strange soundwave Evil Techniques, if they hit Chen Ye’s Divine Sense now, they would be like trying to break a stone with an egg, completely incapable of harming him. At most, it would cause some impact, but this minor impact could swiftly heal with the support of Saturn Star.

After confirming the quality transformation of the Divine Soul,

Chen Ye slowly withdrew his consciousness back to reality.

As soon as he returned to his senses, his Divine Sense ”saw” the arrogant little girl in front of him, the black charcoal she held was almost poking his nose.

However, she hesitated for some reason.

She drew extremely close, her warm breath gently hitting Chen Ye’s cheek.

The little girl cocked her head, her big dark eyes staring earnestly at Chen Ye’s calm, handsome face.

”Actually... when the smelly Master doesn’t scold Qing Jun, he’s quite handsome.”

Qing Jun muttered softly, the hand originally intending to draw a big turtle hesitated, and the black charcoal changed direction.

”Oh well, this great king is in a good mood today, I’ll give you two little cat whiskers instead!”

With that, she held her breath and carefully moved the black charcoal towards Chen Ye’s cheek.

Chen Ye couldn’t help but feel a mischievous urge.

Just as his disciple was deeply engrossed, he suddenly opened his eyes and sneered:

”Drawing cat whiskers? I believe the cat whiskers suit you better.”

”Ah!!!”

Feeling guilty, as Chen Ye expected, Qing Jun was startled and jolted.

She was already tiptoeing forward, and at that moment completely lost balance, exclaiming as she pitched directly towards Chen Ye.

”Haha, silly girl!”

Chen Ye chuckled softly, spreading his arms to firmly catch his disciple.

”Thud.”

Qing Jun crashed into the Master’s broad, warm chest, straddling his lap, her black charcoal-stained hands pressed against Chen Ye’s cheek because of inertia.

”Ah! Mas-Master...”

The little girl stuttered, her silvery Dragon Tail wrapped around the Master’s calf due to stress, getting tighter and tighter, showing how scared she was.

”Caught in the act, little Demoness.”

Chen Ye lowered his eyes, looking at the blushing Dragon Race youngling in his arms.

He smiled, used his fingertips to wipe the black charcoal smudge from his face, and rubbed it onto Qing Jun’s pert nose.

The black charcoal smudge followed his fingertips, leaving a funny stain on Qing Jun’s fair nose, like a little flower cat caught sneaking food.

”Always showing off right in front of your Master, do you really think just because Master is in seclusion he can’t deal with you?”

”Master is bullying...”

Qing Jun buried her little head in Chen Ye’s neck crook, her fluffy hair brushing against his jaw, her arms wrapping around Chen Ye’s neck, mumbling softly,

”Who made Master go into seclusion for ten days, not paying attention to Qing Jun... Qing Jun was really bored by herself, senior sister and junior sister also went into seclusion, only a little fox accompanying Qing Jun, and the little fox is even lazier than Qing Jun, sleeping all day long.”

Saying this,
